Most-quoted passages
The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work. These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 14 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[t]he violation which commences the running of the statute must be the first violation. Otherwise, the statute of limitations would be rendered meaningless. This is particularly true where, as in the present case, the plaintiff has control over succeeding violations, i.e., by making further installment payments.”
4 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the majority““Section 13 of the Act, in part, provides: ‘No actions shall be maintained ... to enforce a liability created under § 77(L)(1) of this title, unless brought within one year after the violation upon which it is based.’ 15 U.S.C. § 77 (m) (1963). Thus, a cause of action based upon § 5(a) of the Act accrues at the time § 5(a) is violated, and the plaintiff has a period of one year from the time the section is violated in which to bring suit. “Section 5(a) is violated when a person, directly or indirectly, makes use of any means or instrument of interstate commerce or of the mail to sell a security or carries the security or causes it to be carried through the mails or through instruments of interstate commerce for the purpose of sale or for delivery after sale. Thus, it is clear that if the seller uses the mails or an instrument of interstate commerce to effectuate any one of the stages of the sales transaction or for delivery after sale, he violates the Act.” (emphasis added).”
